In my life, I observe that males share some common characteristics.
Males Have More Fun Interests
Although I did occasionally go to Creative Writing club, which primarily consisted of girls, the meetings never seemed to hold my interest long enough to last a whole seasonal term or school year. A club meeting usually had a series of solo creative writing prompts. In contrast, Chess Club involved playing chess games, though I was sort of attracted to the free pizza leftovers from the school cafeteria. And Quiz Team involved answering trivia questions about anything under the sun. In my four-year high school experience, males persistently outnumbered females in quiz team and chess club. There were only a handful of students anyway, most of which were male and one was female. I was that female.
Males Are Tall
I've noticed that males and females may look like they have the same leg length. However, males seem taller than females, because their upper bodies from the waist up are longer.
Males Have Simpler Dress and Hairstyle
Culturally, males wear some kind of pants -- shorts, long pants, overalls, jeans, trousers, etc. Meanwhile, females wear blouses, skirts, dresses, long stockings, high heels, low heels, flats, jewelry, etc. For this reason, I am grateful that I am female. Male fashion is so boring and bland.
Males Are Expected To Give In To Their Female Partners
I don't mean to be sexist, but I've had teachers who intervened in male-female interactions. A girl and a boy might be always working together on class assignments. On one such assignment, the boy and the girl had some kind of trivial dispute. Then, the chemistry teacher looked up from his paperwork and intervened. He said, "A happy wife is a happy life." The implication was that the boy just had to give in to the silly, endless argument. He would thus maintain a good connection with the girl, and letting go of the trivia may be a manly thing to do as the girl would be the one that is seen as being so obsessed with something that is ultimately meaningless.
At home, my father and mother argue very frequently. Usually, my father would just let go of the stupid dispute and admit defeat in an incredibly amusing way. One time, he said, "Wife, I know you are very smart. You have never made a single mistake in your life, except you married me. Am I right?" My mother replied, "Yep. I shouldn't have married you." Then, my father grinned and said to me, "See? That's how I get your mother to contradict herself." My father would tolerate senseless disputes and inject a bit of humor to lighten up the mood. However, when my mother gets in an upset mood, she can call my father all sorts of verbally abusive words that my father states that life would be better, if they had separated. My mother probably senses the threat and remains in her bad mood, and the fight continues until a long break caused by work or household chores or other personal tasks intervenes. After the long break, my parents would forget what the fight was about, and all is well. When I ask my father whether he is still planning to divorce, he just replies, "Your mother and I have been married for [my age]+1 years. I'm already stuck to her, and she to me. Separating from her is like separating my other half." I think it's safe to say that my parents can bicker no differently than siblings in other families.
